Overview
With the HTML Editor you can change your HTML documents without leaving cPanel's File Manager interface (cPanel » Home » Files » File Manager). It is a visual WYSIWYG editor whose formatting tools will feel familiar if you have used desktop programs such as Microsoft® Word.
It is built on Jodit. Further details are in Jodit's documentation.
JavaScript is not supported here, so anything that depends on it may look or behave differently in this editor than on your live website.
